Taqueria Monterrey

I got super drunk here. I had a nice night with my hubby. Would come back here to drink more

Always a great option for legit Mexican street food. Tacos are always good and the carne asada is probably my favorite. Th rajas are a close second. Normally I like nopal tacos but these are doused in a red sauce that I just didn't dig as much. On our last visit I ordered the hawaiana torta which has tons of meat and is huge! I only ate half. Had a side of beans and rice and it's perfect. I think the rice is very well done. We've been here three or four times now and every time it's been very consistent.

This is my go to when I want street tacos. Doesn't get any better. I haven't had anything bad here. Keep up the good work!

This taqueria is amazing. They always have good service, the quality is always consistent, it's surprisingly affordable considering how good it is and there has never been a long wait even when they are busy.So far I've only tried various tacos, you can get them with either flour or corn. I typically don't like corn tortillas but their corn tortillas are amazing. They also ask if you want cilantro and onions. It's no brainer to me but there are some that apparently don't like cilantro like my wife so I'm glad they ask so you have the option to get it without cilantro.I have tried most of their tacos, my favorite by far is asada. Al pastor, barbacoa and chorizo. I haven't had tacos this good anywhere else and I have had a lot of tacos.I tried the huevos rancheros while it was good it didn't wow me like their tacos does.This is a must-try restaurant if you like tacos.

I'm sorry but this place was not good. I got a variety of meats in tacos and gorditas along with an elote. I got barbacoa, asada, carnitas, lengua, pastor, & guisada. Out of all the meats I ordered, the barbacoa was the only good one. I can't even say the elote was good either. Just overall disappointing.

I haven't been to this location in about 3 years or so. There are two simple and innocent reasons for why I don't come more often. First, I'm usually on my way somewhere and not hungry when I'm at this intersection. Also, their second store is much closer to my usual route and I've been content with frequenting that spot.However, stopping by on a Saturday morning just after 10am reminded me of all the things this location has to offer! First, for those of you passing through, this location is super easy for getting on and off I35 without disrupting your trip too much. It's next to the Care Now and behind the Dickey's in the corner of the strip.Second, this taqueria has a better layout and is less crowded with their seating, so it has a more relaxed atmosphere. Also, they have about four tables out front in a patio area. It's not covered, so that will depend on the weather. It is shaded in the mornings due to the height of the building.This location is extremely fast and that's actually harder to find in a taqueria setting, so they get major props for that! People had to go orders ahead of me and I still got my food within 5 minutes.I ordered the taco plate, which is my go to at both locations, and a medium agua fresca. With tax, this came out to exactly $10. I ordered the asada, pastor and carnitas. All 3 are executed a little better here than at the one on University, but it's just minor things. The asada is less chewy, the pastor is less greasy and the carnitas aren't as dry. The seasoning was on point for all 3, as I would expect from either location. Even the potato that comes with the plate is a little more flavorful. The beans, rice and agua fresca are about the same, which is to say very good and flavorful.I regret not getting the barbacoa. As we had stopped in on a whim, and a very nice lady was immediately ready to help me, I ordered off the top of my head as I scanned the list of meats. What I should have done is ordered the barbacoa. The barbacoa at the second location is the best I've had in Denton and I've never had it from here. Judging from everything else on this visit, I bet it would have been just as outstanding if not more so!They had 6 agua fresca's ready to go. I went with the Jamaica and it was quite good. They also had breakfast tacos stocked on the counter for grab and go. They have fountain drinks and bottled drinks and ready made desserts available as well. This Taqueria Monterrey is extremely organized and clean, I really like it a lot. It's a great stop for solid food and I'm glad I got a nice reminder of that with delicious agua fresca, yummy rice and above average, well seasoned meats. A 4 1/2 star experience that deserves to be rounded up for speed and service because you can see they are more prepared than many of the other local taquerias around.

Food is mediocre and their prices are horrendously high for the quality of food they offer.

This is our favorite taqueria anywhere near south Denton. My husband's favorite order is the al pastor burrito. He cannot order anything else. My fave is the Tostada Siberia with the verde sauce and some pickled jalapeños. Sooo good. We also love the asado, al pastor, and picadillo tacos. Delicious!!!

This is so authentic!! Never did I know they had my favorite soup! The pazole is Devine .

Just NAAASTY! We were the only ones in the restaurant on a Sunday morning and our food was room temperature. One of the tacos i immediately spit out into my napkin. Our family came because of the reviews on yelp. I wish I had the option to put no stars.
